Is there a reason that copy_file_range shouldn't be like read? (From read(2): "On success, the number of bytes read is returned (zero indicates end of file)". I haven't checked, but suspect that's already true of the implementations we have. Also, from copy_file_range(): EINVAL Requested range extends beyond the end of the source file; or the flags argument is not 0. Some filesystems do this, some don't; I think the man page should make it clear that this behavior is not required. --b. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-man" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
